Replacing the Fan Tray
The router has one fan tray that installs vertically in the rear of the chassis. The fan
tray contains three fans on an MX240 router and six fans on an MX480 router. The
fan tray is hot-removable and hot-insertable.
The fan tray is located in the rear of the chassis on the right side. The fan tray weighs
about 6.8 lb (3.08 kg).
NOTE: To prevent overheating, install the replacement fan tray immediately after
removing the existing fan tray.

Replacing the Fan Tray
Replacing the Fan Tray
To replace the fan tray, use the following procedures:
■
■
Removing the Fan Tray
1. Attach an electrostatic discharge (ESD) grounding strap to your bare wrist and
connect the strap to one of the ESD points on the chassis. For more information
2. Loosen the captive screws on the fan tray faceplate.
3. Grasp the fan tray handle and pull it out approximately 1 to 3 inches.
WARNING: To avoid injury, keep tools and your fingers away from the fans as you
slide the fan tray out of the chassis. The fans might still be spinning.
4. Press the latch located on the inside of the fan tray to release it from the chassis.
5. Place one hand under the fan tray to support it and pull the fan tray completely
out of the chassis.

1. Attach an electrostatic discharge (ESD) grounding strap to your bare wrist and
connect the strap to one of the ESD points on the chassis. For more information
2. Grasp the fan tray handle and insert it straight into the chassis. Note the correct
orientation by the this side up label on the top surface of the fan tray.
3. Tighten the captive screws on the fan tray faceplate to secure it in the chassis.

Preventing Electrostatic Discharge Damage
Preventing Electrostatic Discharge Damage
Many router hardware components are sensitive to damage from static electricity.
Some components can be impaired by voltages as low as 30 V. You can easily
generate potentially damaging static voltages whenever you handle plastic or foam
packing material or if you move components across plastic or carpets. Observe the
following guidelines to minimize the potential for electrostatic discharge (ESD)
damage, which can cause intermittent or complete component failures:
■
Always use an ESD wrist strap or ankle strap, and make sure that it is in direct
contact with your skin.
CAUTION: For safety, periodically check the resistance value of the ESD strap. The
measurement should be in the range of 1 to 10 Mohms.
■
When handling any component that is removed from the chassis, make sure the
equipment end of your ESD strap is attached to one of the ESD points on the
■
■
Avoid contact between the component and your clothing. ESD voltages emitted
from clothing can still damage components.
When removing or installing a component, always place it component-side up
on an antistatic surface, in an antistatic card rack, or in an electrostatic bag (see
Figure 13 on page 9). If you are returning a component, place it in an
electrostatic bag before packing it.
